All very true, Animal. The video cards my people have suck -- nothing to be done about it, I'm afraid; government contracts are great 
-- and installation was in early August and haphazard at best.
Now, that said, there's no excuse for a fairly simple OS update to cause machines to die horribly because of shoddy hardware, nor any reason to reinstall every device driver on every box after a group migration. [/QUOTE]True, however MS can't be held responsible for EVERY single possible hardware configuration out there. They must program for the most common, or the most current. Chances are SP2, won't over-write any existing drivers, however if they are dated prior to SP2, chances are they will. If people don't keep drivers up to date, it's hardly MS's fault.
